This morning coming home from work she hit a dog at about 40mph. It was standing in the road and at the last minute ran right in front of her. They took her to the hospital but she's ok. Nothing broken, a little rash on the elbow and a bunch of bruises. Her windhield is smashed but she says the bike doesnt look too bad. Luckily she has full coverage. The front wheel may be a big bent not too sure of the damage yet. I'm sure when shes feeling better she'll be on asap and let you all know. She sure scared me...ride safe everyone...

Her helmet took a good blow:


The bike:


oh and from AJ herself "Always wear your helmet damnit!"
and they gave her codone just a warning

DAMMIT, AJ, that isn't funny! I'm so glad you were wearing your gear...

Pastrami, please keep us posted on this; AJ is going to need to rest after getting her bell rung like that. That helmet did what it was designed to do, and everything else can be fixed...

Please post here soon as you feel up to it AJ, so we'll know you're at least semi-functional. Hope they give you some pain-killers to help you rest, so you'll recover quickly...

Glad you're alive.  Heal up well!

Maybe someone should keep that dog in the house.

Get well quick AJ, I might have more petcock questions.  :)

Bummer. I hope she recovers quickly.

Ahh! That sucks so much! I'm glad she was wearing her gear (she always does) and that she's alright. Send her my best wishes for a speedy recovery. I'm glad her injuries wern't very serious, too. There's nothing worse than staying in the hospital. Even with cute nurses it still isn't much fun.

Is she still in the hospital, or did they release her?
